Searching Concepts and Keywords in the Holy Quran
نویسنده
چکیده
The Arabic language is one of the oldest languages in the world that presents its own features and challenges while searching for Arabic-based content. The most search systems for the Holy Quran is organized around words (contained in the target verses) rather than the concepts which those words denote. As a word denote many concepts (polysemy) and a concept can be denoted by many words (synonyms). In this study, we present a methodology to search about concepts and keywords in the Holy Quran while improving the chances of finding all desired verses. Three approaches are applied; text-based, stembased, and synonyms-based system. These three approaches are compared with respect to precision. The text-based approach is based on a full word, the synonyms-based approach is based on the synonyms of the word, and the stem-based approach is based on the stem of the word. We apply the light stemming algorithm to find the stem of the word.
